Item 8.01 Other Events
On December 12, 2006, Thomas Group’s Board of Directors amended its annual dividend policy to increase the annual dividend to $0.40 per share from the $0.30 per share approved on June 20, 2006. The amended annual dividend will be paid quarterly at a rate of $0.10 per share. On December 12, 2006, Thomas Group’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend under the amended dividend policy.

Payment of future cash dividends under the policy will be at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors after taking into account various factors, including the Company’s financial condition, operating results, and current and anticipated cash needs.
